Chlorhexidine Gluconat Solution, Sodium Fluoride & Zinc Chloride Mouthwash

Description of Chlorhexidine Gluconate Solution, Sodium Fluoride & Zinc Chloride Mouthwash – Gum-Fresh Mouthwash is an antiseptic medication that is primarily used to treat gingivitis and oral mucositis. Gingivitis is gum inflammation caused by harmful bacteria that, if left untreated, can progress to periodontitis. This can cause the gums to separate from the teeth, resulting in tooth loss. Oral mucositis is a swelling of the tissues in the mouth.

Chlorhexidine is a disinfectant. It functions by adhering to the surface of the teeth, inner cheeks, and gums. This kills the bacteria that cause gum disease, ulcers, and other infections in the mouth. Sodium fluoride works by strengthening teeth and preventing bacteria-caused decay. Zinc chloride has antiseptic (prevents microorganism growth) and astringent properties (tightening of soft organic tissues).
